Social Studies Teachers' Conceptions of Justice.
Makler, Andra
Theory and Research in Social Education, v22 n3 p249-80 Sum 1994
Reports on a study of 18 social studies teachers' concepts of justice. Finds that three dominant themes emerged: (1) justice as right and wrong; (2) justice as fairness; and (3) justice as an ideal or standard. Concludes that responses suggest that social studies teachers' education in political theory may be insufficient. (CFR)
